What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
People living with cancer may experience death anxiety and depression which may impact their experience of posttraumatic growth (PTG). Social support is a psychosocial resource that protects against negative psychological outcome. Although a direct association among these variables exist, little is known about their interactive effect. Dwelling on the buffering hypothesis, this study examined the role of social support in the association of death anxiety and PTG. We further investigated whether depression-PTG relationship would be moderated by social support. Cancer patients (
